I am interested in pushing back my family tree from William Bradley, above. He married Elizabeth Dean in London, England in 1716, came to America with General Oglethorpe in 1736 to develop the Savannah colony, left for Charleston in 1740 when the Savannah colony failed to live up to expectations, and then returned to England some time in the early 1740's. He had children Robert, James, William, Richard, Jane and Martha. Jane and Martha married in Georgia (John Barnard and Isaac Young) and remained there. William returned to England and became a Doctor in London. On Robert and James I have no information. My ancestor is son Richard. I do not know his birth date. Richard went back to London and joined his father in a successful business, but went bankrupt when a Spanish privateer took their ship during a European war around 1760. I believe Richard returned to Savannah to take over whatever land assets remained there. He married Sarah Turner, daughter of a Savannah landowner. He died around 1780, I believe in the revolution. He left two sons, William Brown Bradley and Lewis Turner Bradley, and also widow Sarah who subsequently married Lt. John Jenkins of the New Jersey Volunteers (a loyalist unit). This family left for Canada in 1784 with the rest of the loyalists. I am descended from William Brown Bradley. After five years of research, spent primarily on filling out the life stories of my ancestors, I have not been able to push back the family tree at all. Can you help me? My only clues in England are that William Bradley owned land in Godalming, Surrey around 1760, he was hired in 1735 by the Trust which was responsible for developing the Savannah colony, and there is (or was in 1985 ) an H. Gilbert Bradley in England who is also a descendant. Any clues or information would be much appreciated. I have more information to share.
